Book excerpt: Excerpt from Palaeontological Report of the Princeton Scientific Expedition of 1877: September 1, 1878 This species exhibits considerable variation, both in size and proportion of the teeth. We have two specimens of it, one of which agrees exactly with the measurements given by Professor Cope, while the other is stouter, and probably belonged to an Old male. The incisors are too much broken for description. The canine has a long, stout fang, which is subcircular in section.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Palaeontological Report of the Princeton Scientific Expedition of 1877 Gentleman: I have the honor to transmit herewith the Pal ontological Report of the College Scientific Expedition of 1877. The fossils collected by the Pal ontological party, and deposited by the chief of the expedition in the Geological Museum, consisted of two sets, one numbering some two thousand specimens of fossil plants and insects front the tertiary beds of Central Colorado, the other of a considerable series of fossil vertebrates, mostly mammals, from the tertiary beds of Wyoming Territory, around Fort Bridger. This last collection has been studied and worked out with unabated seal and diligence by the three post-graduate members of the Pal ontological party, Messrs. H. Osborn, W. Scott, and F. Speir, who devoted most of the time of their course to this special work., with what success this Report will show. It will be a source of gratification to the generous friends of the College, who furnished means for the Scientific Expedition of 1877, that it not only enriched our Museum to so great an extent, but did more still by fostering in our College a thorough study of Paleontology, which could not have been undertaken without such means as these thus placed at the disposal of our students. The fossil insects and plants have been intrusted to the hands of the best specialists for determination. Dr. S. Scudder, of Cambridge, Mass., has kindly consented to revise the insects. Prof. G. L. Lequereux the plants. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Palæontological Report of the Princeton Scientific Expedition of 1877 Sir: We transmit herewith our report upon the Palaeontological collee tions made by the Princeton party in the summer of 1877. The following persons constituted the Palaeontological division: rollin H. Lynde, henry F. Osborn, jotham potter, wm. B. Scott, francis speir, Jr. The division remained in Colorado from the first of July until the first of August, when, under the direction of Professor Karge, it left the main party, and passed the month of August in Wyoming, returning in the first part of September. The Colorado collections were mostly made in the (probable) Miocene beds near Florissant, and in the beds near the Garden of the Gods, variously referred to the Dakota and Wealden groups. In Wyoming, with Fort Bridger as a base of explorations, the division was wholly occupied in the Bridger series, camping successively on Smith's Fork, Henry's Fork, and Dry Creek, and exploring the beds adjacent.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 52 papers in this vary in content from summaries or state-of-knowledge treatments, to detailed contributions that describe new species. Although the distinction is subtle, the title (Vertebrate Paleontology in Utah) indicates the science of paleontology in the state of Utah, rather than the even more ambitious intent if it were given the title “Vertebrate Paleontology of Utah” which would promise an encyclopedic treatment of the subject. The science of vertebrate paleontology in Utah is robust and intense. It has grown prodigiously in the past decade, and promises to continue to grow indefinitely. This research benefits everyone in the state, through Utah’s muse ums and educational institutions, which are the direct beneficiaries.

Book excerpt: In the southern summer of 1972/73, the Glomar Challenger was the first vessel of the international Deep Sea Drilling Project to venture into the seas surrounding Antarctica, confronting severe weather and ever-present icebergs. A Memory of Ice presents the science and the excitement of that voyage in a manner readable for non-scientists. Woven into the modern story is the history of early explorers, scientists and navigators who had gone before into the Southern Ocean. The departure of the Glomar Challenger from Fremantle took place 100 years after the HMS Challenger weighed anchor from Portsmouth, England, at the start of its four-year voyage, sampling and dredging the world’s oceans. Sailing south, the Glomar Challenger crossed the path of James Cook’s HMS Resolution, then on its circumnavigation of Antarctica in search of the Great South Land. Encounters with Lieutenant Charles Wilkes of the US Exploring Expedition and Douglas Mawson of the Australasian Antarctic Expedition followed. In the Ross Sea, the voyages of the HMS Erebus and HMS Terror under James Clark Ross, with the young Joseph Hooker as botanist, were ever present. The story of the Glomar Challenger’s iconic voyage is largely told through the diaries of the author, then a young scientist experiencing science at sea for the first time. It weaves together the physical history of Antarctica with how we have come to our current knowledge of the polar continent. This is an attractive, lavishly illustrated and curiosity-satisfying read for the general public as well as for scholars of science.

It details humanity's interest and developing understanding of trilobites from the recovery of these fossils at 15,000 year-old Paleolithic sites, to the 18th century appreciation that they were arthropod fossils. This volume elaborates on the development of modern trilobite research in Australia and a number of American, European, and Asian countries"--Publisher's description.

Book excerpt: Volcanoes are essential elements in the delicate global balance of elemental forces that govern both the dynamic evolution of the Earth and the nature of Life itself. Without volcanic activity, life as we know it would not exist on our planet. Although beautiful to behold, volcanoes are also potentially destructive, and understanding their nature is critical to prevent major loss of life in the future. Richly illustrated with over 300 original color photographs and diagrams the book is written in an informal manner, with minimum use of jargon, and relies heavily on first-person, eye-witness accounts of eruptive activity at both "red" (effusive) and "grey" (explosive) volcanoes to illustrate the full spectrum of volcanic processes and their products. Decades of teaching in university classrooms and fieldwork on active volcanoes throughout the world have provided the authors with unique experiences that they have distilled into a highly readable textbook of lasting value. Questions for Thought, Study, and Discussion, Suggestions for Further Reading, and a comprehensive list of source references make this work a major resource for further study of volcanology. Volcanoes maintains three core foci: Global perspectives explain volcanoes in terms of their tectonic positions on Earth and their roles in earth history Environmental perspectives describe the essential role of volcanism in the moderation of terrestrial climate and atmosphere Humanitarian perspectives discuss the major influences of volcanoes on human societies. This latter is especially important as resource scarcities and environmental issues loom over our world, and as increasing numbers of people are threatened by volcanic hazards Readership Volcanologists, advanced undergraduate, and graduate students in earth science and related degree courses, and volcano enthusiasts worldwide.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jean-Nicolas-Louis Durand (1760–1834) regarded the Précis of the Lectures on Architecture (1802–5) and its companion volume, the Graphic Portion (1821), as both a basic course for future civil engineers and a treatise. Focusing the practice of architecture on utilitarian and economic values, he assailed the rationale behind classical architectural training: beauty, proportionality, and symbolism. His formal systematization of plans, elevations, and sections transformed architectural design into a selective modular typology in which symmetry and simple geometrical forms prevailed. His emphasis on pragmatic values, to the exclusion of metaphysical concerns, represented architecture as a closed system that subjected its own formal language to logical processes. Now published in English for the first time, the Précis and the Graphic Portion are classics of architectural education.

Book excerpt: A world-renowned paleontologist reveals groundbreaking science that trumps science fiction: how to grow a living dinosaur. Over a decade after Jurassic Park, Jack Horner and his colleagues in molecular biology labs are in the process of building the technology to create a real dinosaur. Based on new research in evolutionary developmental biology on how a few select cells grow to create arms, legs, eyes, and brains that function together, Jack Horner takes the science a step further in a plan to "reverse evolution" and reveals the awesome, even frightening, power being acquired to recreate the prehistoric past. The key is the dinosaur's genetic code that lives on in modern birds- even chickens. From cutting-edge biology labs to field digs underneath the Montana sun, How to Build a Dinosaur explains and enlightens an awesome new science.
